I think not wiping out what we just wrote while finishing our sentence writing on a whiteboard is a far bigger issue than how we shift.
Another thing to think about is we lefties can keep our dominant (strong) hand on the bars while reaching to shift on a downtube shifter. A lot of times, I also reach across and shift the front with my right. Also works the same when I reach down to grab a water bottle.
